The equilibrium constant has been estimated to be 0.12 at 25 °C. If you had originally placed 0.069 mol of cyclohexane in a 2.8

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: Concentrations of cyclohexane and methylcyclopentane at equilibrium are 0.0223 M and 0.0027 M respectively

Explanation:

Moles of cyclohexane = 0.069 mole

Volume of solution = 2.8 L

Initial concentration of cyclohexane = $\frac{moles}{Volume}=\frac{0.069}{2.8}=0.025M$

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

cyclohexane ⇔ methylcyclopentane

Initial conc. 0.025 M 0

At eqm. conc. (0.025-x)M (x) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

K= methylcyclopentane / cyclohexane

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

$0.12=\frac{(x)}{(0.025-x)}$

By solving the term 'x', we get :

x = 0.0027

Concentration of cyclohexane at equilibrium = (0.025-x ) M = (0.025-0.0027) M = 0.0223 M

Concentration of methylcyclopentane at equilibrium = (x ) M = (0.0027) M

Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid calcium carbonate (CaCO_3)

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

Explanation:

The decomposition reaction always make two compounds from one.

The products always have simpler chemical structure, originated from a determined compound. This can happens spontaneously or by a third party.

A notable example of decomposition is hydrolysis. As for example the case of water, which decomposes and generates oxygen and hydrogen gas

2H₂O (l) → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)

In this case, the calium carbonate decomposes into CaO and CO₂

These two, are the products of the decomposition.

Of course, the unique reactant is the Calcium Carbonate

The balanced equation is:

CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

The density of H2O2 is 1.407 g/mL, and the density of O2 is 1.428 g/L. How many liters of O2 can be made from 55 mL H2O2

balandron [24]

Explanation:

mass H2O2 = 55 mL(1.407 g/mL) = 80.85 g

molar mass H2O2 = 2(1.01 g/mol) + 2(16.00 g/mol) = 34.02 g/mol

moles H2O2 = 80.85 g/34.02 g/mol = 2.377 moles H2O2

For each mole of H2O2 you obtain 0.5 mole of O2 (see the equation).

moles O2 = 2.377 moles H2O2 (1 mole O2)/(2 moles H2O2) = 1.188 moles O2

Now, you need the temperature. If you are at STP (273 K, and 1.00 atm) then 1 mole of an ideal gas at STP has a volume of 22.4 L. Without temperature you are not really able to continue. I will assume you are at STP.

Volume O2 = 1.188 moles O2(22.4 L/mole) = 0.0530 L of O2.

which is 53 mL.
